Corrected 18 March 2011

The building cost figures published on 10 March 2011 were too high due to an error in the calculation of the labour costs for some of the occupational groups included in the building cost indices. All figures in the text, apart from the material costs, have therefore been corrected. Corrections have also been made to tables, figures and in StatBank.
